Despite an increase in the visibility of the transgender population, those who transition continue to face barriers to receiving care through traditional medical providers. Dermatologists can play an important role in the care of transgender patients, through increased understanding and awareness, better outreach, modified medical forms, improved office procedures, and safer and immediately available minimally invasive aesthetic treatments. Minimally invasive aesthetic enhancements that help align appearance with aesthetic goals and gender identity can enhance confidence and improve quality of life. This article discusses gender transition, applicable minimally invasive procedures for the face and body, and illustrative case examples.
尽管跨性别群体的可见度有所增加,但那些进行性别转换的人在接受传统医疗服务提供者的护理方面仍然面临障碍。皮肤科医生可以通过增加理解和认识、更好的外展服务、修改医疗表格、改进办公程序以及提供更安全和即时的微创美容治疗,在跨性别患者的护理中发挥重要作用。帮助使外观与审美目标和性别认同一致的微创美容增强可以增强信心并提高生活质量。本文讨论了性别转换、适用于面部和身体的微创程序以及说明性病例示例。
